North East Derbyshire District Council’s tax hike of 1.75 percent places an unnecessary burden on residents, and if Conservatives were in power there would be a council tax freeze, the Leader of the Opposition has said.

Lee Rowley, Member of Parliament for North East Derbyshire, has criticised out-of-date local planning policies that are “coming back to bite us” as more unplanned housebuilding is permitted in the face of opposition from local residents

"The choice was this deal, which enables us to take back control and to build a brighter future for our country, or going back to square one with more division, more uncertainty and a failure to deliver on the referendum."

Local Conservatives have written to the North East Derbyshire Labour Party to ask them to clarify their position on a wide range of issues following their invitation for the controversial Derby North Labour MP, Chris Williamson, to visit Clay Cross in the constituency.
